Investors Continuing to Want In On The Hollywood Real Estate Action

There was an article yesterday in the LA Times about another purchase of prime real estate in Hollywood, where the developer is planning a large mixed-use project. According to the times article, "Champion Real Estate Co. bought the paved 1.1-acre site behind the Hollywood Boulevard restaurant (Musso & Frank Grill) and between Cherokee and Las Palmas avenues from Common Fund. The price was not disclosed, but Hollywood real estate experts familiar with the property valued it at nearly $10 million." They are planning on creating a $50 Million dollar complex that would include residential, retail, and possibly a hotel. This is in addition to their purchase last year of a nearby Hollywood site that's over 2 acres. Among other ongoing development projects, there is currently a new mixed-use project being created on Sunset Blvd and Bronson by the mighty CIM Group, who has been at the forefront of the development in Hollywood with their groundbreaking Hollywood & Highland shopping complex.

The president of the Champion company sums up the development in the area nicely by stating, “We really love Hollywood,” President Robert Champion said “The city has designated Hollywood to be an urban location and we think, long term, a mixed-use project there will be a home run.”

For those of you that don't have the ability to buy or develop an entire building, but would like to invest in the growth in Hollywood, which is surely going to continue to boom; I have a loft at Hollywood & Vine for sale. Get in on the action and grab a piece of the growth!

Hollywood Urban Live/Work Lifestyle

Imagine a lifestyle where you move right into a furnished designer done loft in a secure doorman building at one of the most famous intersections in the world, Hollywood & Vine. You wake up in your hip designer done modern two story loft and go downstairs to your lower level, which houses your office work area - no sitting in traffic during your daily commute. At the end of the day you head back upstairs to get ready for a night on the town, and outside of the building you can walk a maximum of two blocks in either direction and you have top restaurants, shopping, and nightlife at your grasp within minutes. This saves you time, energy, gas money, and is just easier. Modern living at it's finest. Imagine that.

With the evolution of Hollywood there is now a chance to live this urban NYC style lifestyle, but with the ideal climate of Los Angeles. In the past several years there has been a trend toward mixed use buildings, loft conversions, high end restaurants, and nightlife in Hollywood. For the right person looking to be among the action with the ability to walk everywhere, Hollywood & Vine is the epicenter. For me, I would much rather live here then downtown, especially considering the prices are already comparable if not even less in Hollywood.

If this lifestyle appeals to you, this listing of mine may be just the right opportunity to own it.

Hollywood & Vine Expansion Pictures

Just a few of the pictures I took today of the Sunset/Hollywood & Vine area of booming Hollywood to visually represent previous posts about the area's rise. This is obviously just a snapshot of a small area, and I will have more of new shopping on Cahuenga, new loft buildings, hotels, and more soon. I live in and around this area, so shooting in Hollywood is easy. [flickr size="small" float="left"]http://www.flickr.com/photos/42659427@N02/4207472826/[/flickr]

Hollywood's Evolution

I have recently posted a few tweets about different loft/condo projects in Hollywood that I have shown various client's, so thought it was time to post a bit more on the topic. The area of Hollywood has gone from roaring in the 20's with the movie industry's arrival to shaky (to put it mildly) in the 80's, and now evolving into one of the most dynamic and desirable locations in Los Angeles. The fact of the matter is that Hollywood is currently rapidly changing in front of everyone's eyes, with it's influx of soaring buildings, cranes, and massive development in every category. There are literally Billions of dollars in new development that has either recently completed or is currently under construction, namely the $600M W Hotel & Condo project at Hollywood & Vine. That intersection has become the epicenter, and developer's have been capitalizing on the city's adaptive reuse ordinances on that very intersection with the Broadway Lofts (Formerly the Broadway store) at the southwest corner and the Lofts @ Hollywood & Vine (formerly the Equitable Building) on the northeast. Prices in this area range from as low as $399,000 and go all the way up to $6M at the new W building. [flickr size="small" float="left"]http://www.flickr.com/photos/42659427@N02/4188411239/[/flickr]

The reemergence was started in 2001 with the Hollywood and Highland retail complex (pictured above). It is not only loft buildings for sale being built, but also apartment buildings, several mixed-use projects with retail below apartments (this I am a huge proponent of), and restaurants and nightlife. Since I live just off Hollywood Blvd. in the thick of the action, it is an absolute joy to be a part of the new Hollywood. It is this knowledge of the city that is crucial to adequately advising my clients. I would definitely recommend buying into this area as a lifestyle, assuming you like urban living and the ability to walk to goods and services, as well as an investment. The city feels alive and only getting better. There will be a new arrival of thousands of residents, which in turn will bring energy and cultural influencers further evolving the city into one of the most desirable places to be in the city of Los Angeles. Enjoy the evolution.
